Former England Rugby international Dylan Hartley has joined equipment rental specialists, Access Hire in a senior business development role. England’s most capped hooker of all time joins the company whilst also taking up the role of director of rugby at Dubai Sharks RFC.
The equipment rental company sponsor the Sharks and last season had provided them with use of a dozen solar-paneled floodlights, so they could play in the evening at their Dubai Polo Club home ground. This link between Access Hire and Dubai Sharks has been strengthened further by the unveiling of Hartley in his new role.
The rugby ace last played for England in 2018, picking up 97 caps over a ten-year period. He captained his country to a grand slam in 2016, the first time England had achieved this in thirteen years.
